FALCO Holsters officially launched its new CarryArt series on April 1 with two unconventional leather OWB holsters: the CX14 Pineapple and CX15 Strawberry. And to be perfectly clear, it wasn’t a joke, despite the posting date. While the fruit-themed designs may raise eyebrows at first, the company emphasizes that the new holsters will deliver the same reliability that shooters expect from FALCO products.
The CarryArt holsters are still handcrafted in Slovakia from 1/8” (7–8 oz) full-grain Italian leather and custom-fit for more than 3600 handguns via FALCO’s very intuitive online holster customizer. Both models feature a leather belt-tunnel attachment, an open-top design for a fast, natural draw, an open bottom to accommodate threaded barrels, and reinforced construction for durability and easy re-holstering.
They maintain a compact OWB profile, so they’re still able to be concealed underneath an appropriate concealment garment like a long shirt or jacket.
CEO Robert Kováč says,
We are thankful for overwhelmingly positive feedback at the Shot Show. These two holsters nicely complement the hand-tooled holster designs we have been offering for years, while opening the door to new creative possibilities.
The CarryArt series is, at the very least, a way for the talented people at FALCO to fold in some of the traditional leatherwork into personal expression that customers can enjoy. The CX14 Pineapple features a bold pineapple-textured design, while the CX15 Strawberry includes cutouts shaped like strawberry seeds in the outer leather layer.
Both are available now at falcoholsters.com, priced at $179.95 each. They come with FALCO’s Lifetime Limited Warranty and 30-Day Buyback Guarantee. FALCO, established in 1989 in Slovakia, also produces all sorts of other holster products and accessories in-house, using high-quality European and U.S. materials, offering custom options across leather, hybrid, Kydex, and carbon fiber holsters for pistols and revolvers, plus compatibility with over 100 rail-mounted lights. So even if these fruit-themed holsters aren’t your style, FALCO is still worth checking out for their vast assortment of holsters and accessories, like belts and magazine carriers.
